OH NO!!!!!!

Without even reading the article, this wouldn't be Brett talking to MN!!

BWWWWWHAAAAAA!!

I love the guy to death.
Was happy for his rebirth in New York, even.

But Brett, Get a life and do so by going home to the gorgeous raven haired mother of your babies.
Coach HS football, Brett.

Brother is this is gettin' embarrasin', or what.

That is one of the worst things about athletes who get old. They just don’t know when to quit.

Numerous x-athletes have tried a come back. Most fail. Try again. And finally succumb to retirement or sports announcing.

Some of them are almost as bad as Babs and Cher in their frequent ‘farewell tours’.

Obviously the guy is sitting at home bored as hell. How can anybody be pained or otherwise negatively affected by Favre’s decision to un-retire (again)? If you don’t like the way ESPN is covering it— free market, liberty = tons of channels. Go watch something else.

He’s juiced by competitive spirits, but his ability is declining. Don’t blame Brett. If a GM wants to hire him, then so be it.

-Bears fan who essentially hates Favre and the Packers. Well, mostly the Packers.

I'm still holding out hope that Bobby Orr will rejoin the Bruins. His ice hockey career was way too short.

Also, with the long layoff, I'm sure his knee is much better than it was back then.

I use to be a huge Bret fan until he returned after his first tearful goodbye announcement. Just be honest and say “I'm taking a Spanish pause and then I'll be back somewhere.” Otherwise say what you mean and mean what you say. In the same way I thought Joe Montana became somewhat pitiful when he returned, and I like the KC Chiefs...

I guess you are correct. If they want to pay him, then let them. Heck, I am over forty and if they wanted to pay me, I would take a game check for soem broken bones. Maybe.

If you say it is a soap opera why did you post it?
